Citybus Timetables 44 - 49

We are nearly there with all the 11 November changes…

Service 44/A

Services have been retimed to improve reliability with both Services retimed in the peaks to create an even combined bus every 10 minutes from earlier in the day and will maintain this frequency until a little later in the day. Evening Services on Sundays have also been returned to compliment the retimed Sunday day timetable. Service 44/A together with Service 40 and 41 provide buses up to every 5 minutes for most of the day Monday to Saturday between the City Centre and Crownhill.

As the London’s media watches from a distance, it seems almost inevitable that someone will look to the City and ask “could it happen here?” There are key differences between New York’s relationship with its rivers and the Atlantic, and London’s relationship with the Thames and the North Sea, but it is a fair question nonetheless.

It seems that the good people who lead the local councils in West Yorkshire can still spot a bargain when they see one. Suddenly, they’ve been motivated to think again about bus quality contracts because the DfT has dangled the carrot of a BSOG uplift before them Omnibuses

Anyways, the insane technicolor monstrosity is meant to be understandable by whom?, took me 2 minutes to understand it, probably not great for colour-blind people or people susceptible to epilepsy. Public Transport Experience

Interesting how with the 44/As after 1555 it's all 44s - no 44As. I suppose this will probably improve reliability in the evening peak with all buses going one-way round Whitleigh.

46 seems a bit tight on the timetable what with only one bus assigned though I'd certainly put an extra run from Derriford at around 1715ish, which could terminate at Ernesettle and do a one off extra trip into town as a 43 from Erensettle at 1720.

About Me

My main on-line activity is the Plymothian Transit Blog which covers anything and everything to do with transport in and around Plymouth. My main interest was always buses and coaches so these feature heavily in the blog but I am also covering the railways and the road of Plymouth past and present. The development of the City also gets a mention from time to time.
